Thanks for the recommendation. It’s looking pretty interesting. I’m surprised I haven’t heard about it until now. How’s your experience overall? What other OS’s have you tried? I’ve tried Proxmox, then TrueNAS, but I settled on Unraid. (The Unraid server died on me. When I turned it on, I couldn’t access the web UI. Sometimes, when I press the power button, it doesn’t turn on. )

Now that I bought different hardware for the cosmos server and my Pi is free I should check out proxmox and unraid though just to compare

I haven’t tried any of those honestly. My previous setup was just a Raspberry Pi running docker with portainer GUI, and nginx pointing to one service. It took me at least a month of dealing with errors, and I got burned out when I could never get geo-blocking or fail2ban working.
I stumbled across Cosmos when the dev posted about 0.16 release and the main draw for me was integrated reverse proxy, geo-blocking, anti-bot/ddos, and automatic updates. I have only run into a few hiccups setting it up and the discord is pretty active so my issues had either been solved before or someone answered me quick

While reviewing Cosmos yesterday, I stumbled upon another operating system called ZimaOS. It’s also pretty interesting.

What is the licensing? Doesn’t look open.

What are they reinventing the wheel from, proxmox or something like that? I should take a peek at something else just to see how they compare

Just looking through the features, things like their own VPN.
